jim999 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Anyone listen to Kvelertak? Checking them out on Spotify just now as they are supporting Metallica next week. Sound quite decent from what I’ve heard so far. Is it just them supporting or are Avenged Sevenfold there too? Disappointed Volbeat winna be there as they supported in the states. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah was hoping for Volbeat too they would be much better support but America always seem to get better tours than we do 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Avenged are too big here to support in arenas. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a strange one cos even though they are big enough to headline arenas here, they would be the perfect support act for Metallica or Maiden on an arena tour. Saying that, I still think my perfect gig would be Metallica - Volbeat - Trivium - Ghost. I would die if that tour ever happened over here!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Parr Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 I've seen Kvelertak a few times - most recently in Stereo. They'll do fine, so long as they get the 'in the round' sound right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love that Metallica hand-pick their support to give a push to bands they actually like, it's great for the industry and a genre that's awash with Pay-To-Play support slots (Oh hello Sharon Osbourne, I didn't see you there...), but given Metallica could have literally any band in the world as their opening act, the bill often seems a bit meh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunning1874 Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Kvelertak are tremendous live, although admittedly I've never seen them in an arena and it's hard to say how their sound will come across on a bigger stage. I've seen them be great at outdoor festivals, but they're definitely the type of band suited to small venues. Anyone listened to the new Black Dahlia Murder album? It's absolutely brilliant. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8MileBU Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 New Trivium album out today. Looking forward to getting home from work and giving it a blast [emoji4] I’m listening to that new Power Trip album ICTChris mentioned on here recently. Well worth getting if you like thrash. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zetterlund Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Due to a sequence of coincidences and good fortune, I just found out I'm going to see Metallica at the Hydro next week. Just confirmed Friday off work too. Pleasing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8MileBU Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Just seen that Sepultura will be playing over here in March at a venue called SWG3. First I’ve heard of it. Anybody been to a gig there and any good? Tempted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8MileBU Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 It's one of Glasgow's best imo. Reasonably priced alcohol as well. Is it a new place or was it previously known as something else? As I said, never heard of it until I seen Sepultura’s tour dates. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure of it's history but I'm pretty sure it's relatively new, it's an old warehouse that's been turned into a venue. It's out by Patrick as well so not close to city centre like most of the venues. I've only been a couple of times but I was pretty impressed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranaldo Bairn Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 (edited) Two tix for Metallica on Thursday available. @8MileBU You'll need to be there and meet with the wife and I to get in. Tickets are in a different block so don't worry you don't have to sit beside us and endure my rotten patter.

The two gigs i've seen there (Russian Circles/Chelsea Wolfe and Sunn O)))) were both great. Sound was spot on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raithie Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Reading the Metallica forum and seems the gig in London last night was a nightmare with quite a lot of people missing the start of their set due to the security checks. Seems certain entrances were enforcing it and other entrances weren’t. Read one poster saying it took an hour and a half to get in and another poster saying it took them 10 minutes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones who missed the start probably showed up about 15 minutes before Metallica were due to start. Weather permitting I’ll be there about 3pm so hopefully no issues for me 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
